Although he was worried, he comforted her, âLittle Munchkin, they will be fine. Do you want to sit down and rest for a while?â
There was a stone bench made of cement by the side of the bridge. It was two meters long and could seat several people.
It was no point to stand and wait, so they sat down and waited.
âWhy did Master go through so much trouble to set up the array at Qi Mountain?â Hua Wuyan could not comprehend this matter. They knew better than anyone how big the Qi Mountain was, and setting up the array was not something one could complete in a day or two.
Qin Feng guessed, âMaybe he didnât want us to go back to Qi Mountain again, discover something that he didnât want us to know. When I left, the Master said not to return anymore.â
Yan Shuang said, âWhen I left, the Master also said that.â
Hua Wuyan said, âMaster said it to me too.â
Qin Shu glanced at the three beside her. âI donât remember.â
Qin Feng said, âSo, Master doesnât want us to come back.â
Yan Shuang couldnât help but start to worry. âThen will Ling Yan and Ling Han be okay?â
âTheyâll be okay.â It was unknown whether Hua Wuyan was comforting himself or them, but he prayed in his heart. They would be able to come out smoothly.
Qin Shu clenched her hands into fists because she was nervous. Her fists were so tight that it was like her nerves at the moment.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was most afraid that the periphery of the Qi Mountain was a dangerous array; the danger factor would be very high.

On the other end of the bridge
About ten meters after they walked on the long bridge, there were towering trees and bushes everywhere. Fu Tingyu noticed that something was wrong. He turned and looked behind him. Just as he expected, the bridge behind him has disappeared.
It meant that he and Han Xiao had entered the formation.
As for what formation it was, he didnât know yet.
He reminded Han Xiao, âBe careful. Weâre already in the formation.â
When Fu Tingyu turned around to remind him, Han Xiao subconsciously turned and realized that the bridge behind him had disappeared. Other than the thick fog, he couldnât see anything.
Han Xiao asked, âCan you tell what formation is this?â
âI canât tell at the moment. Letâs take a few steps.â Fu Tingyu glanced at the bushes in front of him. The weeds were half a meter tall, and there was no footpath.
The array had an array eye, a door of life, and a door of death. If one took a wrong step, it would be a life and death situation.
Han Xiao suddenly asked an unrelated question, âDo you want her to regain her memory?â
Fu Tingyu turned his head to look at Han Xiao and said, âShe wants to regain her memory.â
He meant that it was not a question of whether he wished it or not, but it was the girlâs decision.
Han Xiao asked again, âDo you think recovering her memory is good for her?â
Fu Tingyu said, âItâs half good and half bad. There must be a reason for her to lose her memory. Whether remembering the past would make her feel guilty or losing her memory that may let her experience some bad things, itâs not what I want to see.â
Han Xiao was a little puzzled. âThen why do you insist on looking for Master?â
âI always feel that Master may know something.â Fu Tingyu paused at this point and asked him, âHavenât you been looking forward to her recovering her memory? Why donât you want her to recover her memory now?â
âI just donât want her to live with guilt for the rest of her life.â
Rather than seeing her guilty and sad eyes, he would prefer to see her smile more. She smiled innocently.
Fu Tingyu stared at Han Xiao for a long time and suddenly thought of a question. He asked, âDo you think she likes you or me?â
Han Xiao asked, âWhat do you want to say?â
Fu Tingyu chuckled and asked him back, âDonât you want to know the answer?â
Han Xiao was stunned. Of course, he wanted to know who Little Munchkin liked after she regained her memory?
He lowered his gaze and looked at his right leg. Suddenly, he felt that this question was no longer critical.
What was important was that there was only one person in his heart.
âAs long as she is happy.â
Fu Tingyu stared at Han Xiao. He remembered back in the Imperial City. He firmly said she would leave him after the girl recovered her memories, as he lied to her.
But when Han Xiao gave the girl the wedding gift, he had said that it was a dowry for his younger sister, indicating that he treated the girl as his younger sister.
Now, Han Xiao seemed to have let it go.
In fact, from his eyes, he could tell that he had never truly let go.
He retracted his gaze and looked at the road in front of him. There was no road, so he was wondering which way to go?
Before he left, he had heard from his father that there would always be a specific pattern no matter what kind of formation it was.
He tried to take about ten steps forward. When he turned and looked behind him, he realized that the position of the tree he had just passed by had changed.
Han Xiao didnât know anything about formations. He could only follow Fu Tingyuâs footsteps. When he stopped, he stopped as well.
He asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âIâm looking for a pattern, and then Iâll break the formation,â Fu Tingyu answered concisely.
Even now, he still couldnât help but make a few remarks.
His father, Fu Beichen, had let him learn this and that since he was young. When he could handle everything, he threw all the business matters to him and brought his mother to tour around the world.
He didnât teach him the techniques to break a formation.
Although his father had said that he wasnât proficient in setting up formations, teaching him all he knew would be better than not teaching.
At this moment, Fu Beichen, far away in the Imperial City, hugged his daughter and coaxed her to sleep. For some reason, he sneezed.
It was useless to think about it now. Fu Tingyu could only take it one step at a time.
They wandered around the forest for more than two hours.
Fu Tingyu finally discovered another problem. It seemed that he was going in circles. Although the surrounding environment looked different as he walked, he felt like going in circles.
Now, he had no choice but to admit a fact.
He turned to look at Han Xiao. âWeâre trapped.â
Han Xiao didnât show any expression after hearing that. When he planned to enter, he had already thought of many difficulties that he would encounter.
âIs there a way to get out?â He asked.
Fu Tingyu: âLet me think.â
He started to look at his surroundings again. He looked at the moss-covered stone on the ground, which was quite common.
However, it was not necessarily an ordinary stone when a stone appeared in an array.
He walked around the rock, took ten steps to the right, and continued walking.
Han Xiao followed behind at a leisurely pace.
He did not know if he had gone the wrong path, but the surroundings suddenly began to shake, and the trees seemed to move. Then, he heard strange cries.
It was customary to have wild animals in the forest. If they were ferocious and predatory animals, it would be troublesome.
With the appearance of wild animals in the formation, it would be even harder to get out.
Then, they saw two giant pythons suddenly appear from behind the huge rock. Their sharp heads opened their mouths and were sticking out their tongues.

It was getting dark soon.
Qin Shu couldnât sit still anymore. She stood up and said, âThey have been in there for eight hours. I want to go in and take a look.â
Qin Feng grabbed Qin Shuâs wrist and stood up as well. He advised her, âLing Bao, donât be impatient. Itâs dark now, and itâs even more inconvenient for you to go in. Letâs wait a little longer.â
Qin Feng was also very anxious. He had no choice but to calm down to appease Qin Shu.
